Commissioning

Cx Associates is noted in the region for delivering the most rigorous and thorough building commissioning process to ensure that new and renovated building systems are designed, built, and operated to meet the Owner's requirements. We serve as a resource for the Owner, the design team, the contractors, and the building operators to provide continuity from concept through occupancy. We are unique in that once we identify an issue, we work with the team to get it resolved on time and within budget, based on our experience of having commissioned over 12 million square feet of new and existing facilities, including more than two dozen LEED projects.

I appreciate Cx Associates’ ability to provide us with that extra set of eyes during the design review process. Cx Associates’ ability to dedicate their time and expertise is like an insurance policy for us. It gives me the confidence to know our design engineers have done an adequate job and that they haven’t missed anything. Investing ahead of time eliminates problems and additional costs during the project."

Wes Pooler, Director of Facilities, Univ. of Vermont Medical Center

We are pleased to have been able to work with CxA on the design of the new Rutland Branch facility for the Vermont State Employees Credit Union. It was evident throughout the process that CxA knew which systems and designs work best for maximizing energy savings and minimizing up front costs. I was especially pleased with their technical knowledge, professional approach and organizational skills – they were not afraid to ask the team the hard questions.”

Tom Bachman, Gossens & Bachman Architects

I have worked with Cx Associates several times throughout the years with outstanding success. Their knowledge and practical expertise is without equal in the industry. I am always glad to hear that CxA will be doing the commissioning on one of my projects because I know their support will help my firm in executing a successful project for our mutual client.”

The fee invested in Cx Associates’ commissioning services was saved several times over. The punchlist and the callbacks were unusually minimal for a project of this magnitude. You have a 100% satisfied client.”

Gordon Lesperance, Vermont National Guard

Cx Associates worked closely with the team to ensure our expectations were met through the commissioning process.”

I've worked with Cx Associates on two major projects; Aiken Hall, certified LEED Gold, won awards for historic preservation and Perry Hall is expected to win AIA awards as well as achieve LEED Platinum. Due to the demands of the restoration and sustainability, we needed commissioners with strong senses of building aesthetics, attention to details, and project coordination - Cx Associates met those needs"

We appreciate the herculean effort given for the commissioning at Heater Road and the level of scrutiny and detail provided."

-Perry Seale, Director of Facilities at Hypertherm Inc.

Cx Associates' independent design review resulted in both cost savings and more green alternatives for our expansion project. We were able to save $40,000 off the initial construction bids and meet project objectives including ongoing annual savings and a quiet energy conscious building.”
